Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | 0x: An open protocol for decentralized exchange on the Ethereum blockchain |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | The 2017 0x paper: off-chain signed orders, on-chain settlement, and relayers who host order books without taking custody. It is the reference design for 'the book is off-chain, the swap is on-chain'. |
| Who may write | Will Warren and Amir Bandeali |
| What is settled | Makers sign an order that names the assets, the price, the expiry and a taker policy. |
| Load-bearing assumption | Off-chain orders are only as live as the API that serves them. The paper does not remove liveness risk. It moves it. |
| What this library says afterwards | Allowance and signature phishing are user-safety problems adjacent to the design. |
| Rights | Official external source only |
